Hotel Rheinischer Hof
10/10 Excellent
"Nice place, beautiful view on the Zugspitze. Nice room and balcony. Super friendly staff. A wonderful wellness place and pool. All this a walking distance from everything. The breakfast is worth the stay only, everything was delicious and fresh. "
"Great place to stay.
Fussen is stunning and well worth a good walk around the old town.
Comfortable room and breakfast was amazing.
The staff were really friendly too"
"We stayed at the Hotel Alpina (H-Hotel property) in August 2025 for a night. We were upgraded to a Jr Suite and the room was absolutely amazing. It was spacious and had breathtaking views of the mountains from the Balcony. Morning breakfast was also very good, loved how the hotel was eco friendly with minimal to no use of plastic. "
"Excellent spa hotel just a few steps from the castle (the closest you can be). Very close to restaurants and shops from the little village. Nice breakfast and beautiful hotel. Only negatives were that my son’s bed wasn’t made despite the reservation clearly saying it was for 3 people. I had to ask twice before they came to set up the bed. Also I wanted to use the spa on the day of check out and they charged me 10 euros per person!! I didn’t even use the spa on the day before because I had to visit the castle."
